For example: - "Everything working, don't delete!" or - "Testing with CUPS service disabled" or - "Excluded Jupyter as build is currently failing" or - "Trialing CSVkit" That way I can look back at `guix package --list-generations` and know what's I ought to keep or delete. Otherwise all you have is the list of packages but no information about the intent of each generation. It would be helpful to be able to do this at the time of creating the generation and also afterwards.
